Speedo YES odo NO?

1998 VFR 800
Speedo works but odometer doesn't. Trip meter was working till I overtightened chain. Battery died. Help?

 

Do you have any info at all in the digital panel? It is not uncommon for corrosion (in the circuit tracks of the display) to cause issues with the display. To the best of my knowledge, the speedo and odo both utilise the pulse signal from the speed sensor against the front sprocket nut, so no point thinking about that as a source.

 

I overtightened the chain which caused catastrophic problems. Dead battery, no odometer or tripmeter, stalling when parked. This morning I loosened the chain & voila' tripmeter, battery & stalling fixed. Ordered an aluminum replacement coupler. Will update about odometer once part is installed.

 

What made you think adjusting the chain properly was within your skill set ?

 

Removed the speed coupler & its almost stripped. Can't understand how tripmeterv is functional. Ordered an aluminum replacement. Hopefully the odometer will start working once new one is installed?
